UnobtrusiveCompactRaidManager

Reduces the width of the CompactRaidManager frame and makes it transparent in it's collapsed state.

Update: Had to revert 4.1 compatibility statement due to errors with 4.1 and no option to fix them (i've stopped playing WoW)

What does it change?

With patch 4.0.1 Blizzard intorduced the CompactRaidManager, a tool frame to execute raid tasks like raid markers or role checks.

The CompactRaidManager frame shows up for the raid leader and raid officers on the left side of the screen. It can be toggled between collapsed an expanded state. If collapsed, it shows a small bar to click on to expand it.

The collapsed state bar will be reduced in its size an made more transparent by the UnobtrusiveCompactRaidManager AddOn. It will still be clickable to expand the CompactRaidManager with normal opacity.

Detailed feature list

Reduce the width of the collapsed raid manager.

Now the hole frame is clickable to expand the raid manager.

Adjust the opacity of the raid manager (seperately for collapsed and expanded).

Config gui in interface options.

Show raid manager when config options are open and hide it after config close if not in a raid. So you can test all settings.

Option to move the raid manager up/down.

Auto expand the raid manager on mouse over in collapsed state and auto collapse it on mouse out (optional, out of combat only).

If collapsed, the frame gets highlighted on mouse over (via opacity).

If expanded, clicking anywhere on the raid manager outside its buttons will collapse it.

Option to reduce the height of the CompactRaidManager frame in collapsed state.

+ Fixed affecting RaidGroups by our opacity settings
* Recoded to use secure frames to hopefully avoid the taint issues with raid markers
- Had to remove the option "Collapse when clicked on the CompactRaidManager background". This options behavior is now enabled by default and can't be disabled anymore because of impementation limitations due to secure frame usage
- Delayed auto collapse/expand now only works out of combat due to secure frame limitations while in combat. You have to click the RaidManager or set the delay to 0.

v1.2.1:

+ added french localization. Thanks to Cinedelle :)

v1.2:

+ added option to reduce the height of the CompactRaidManager frame in collapsed state
+ don't auto collapse if the raid world marker drop down is open
* fixed: checkbox options didn't save correctly

me again
you probably shouldn't change the addon Name for any localisation. It's confusing if you download and install "UnobtrusiveCompactRaidManager" and in your addon list there's a addon called "Unaufdringlicher Raid-Manager"...

Originally posted by xentaros I like this addon but it's causing taint problems:

Code:

1/31 00:11:06.025 An action was blocked in combat because of taint from UnobtrusiveCompactRaidManager - CompactRaidFrameManager:SetPoint()
...

Thanks for reporting this issue.

I've tried to reproduce it and it seems to happen when a raid flare marker is set via the CompactRaidManagers drop down menu while in combat. Can you confirm this?

Sadly it's not that simple top fix it. Any move of the CompactRaidFrameManager by an addon in combat seems to cause the raid flare drop down menu to become tainted. So it's also caused due to the auto show on mouseover feature of UnobtrusiveCompactRaidManager.

The only eventually solution that comes into my mind is to restrict show/hide of the CompactRaidManagers in combat to clicking the frame (disabling auto show/hide on mouseover in combat). I'll test it.

I've recoded it to use secure frames, this hopefully will fix the taint issues. You can find a beta version with this changes at Curseforge. This also fixes the transparency problem of affecting raid frames since 4.0.6.
I'll upload it at wowinterface when it's approved to fix the problem.

Thanks for the error reports.
Certainly i've stopped playing WoW with patch 4.1. Without an active account to test any changes i'm unfortunately not able to fix this error.
I've now changed the compatibility statement to 4.0.
